KINKY BOOTS
Dec. 9–10, 2025
Granada Theatre
Everybody say “Yeah!” and let KINKY BOOTS lift your spirits to high-heeled heights! Winner of every Best Musical award, including the Tony®, Grammy®, and London’s Olivier Award, Kinky Boots captivates and entertains audiences around the world with a Tony®-winning score by Cyndi Lauper, book by four-time Tony Award®-winner Harvey Fierstein, and original direction and Tony®-winning choreography by Jerry Mitchell.
Based on true events, KINKY BOOTS follows the journey of two people with nothing in common— or so they think. The unlikely pair find that they have more in common than they realized… and discover that you change the world when you change your mind.
THE BOOK OF MORMON
Feb. 24–25, 2026
Granada Theatre
The New York Times calls it “the best musical of this century.” The Washington Post says, “It is the kind of evening that restores your faith in musicals.” And Entertainment Weekly says, “Grade A: the funniest musical of all time.” Jimmy Fallon of The Tonight Show calls it “Genius. Brilliant. Phenomenal.” It’s THE BOOK OF MORMON, the nine-time Tony Award® winning Best Musical.
This outrageous musical comedy follows the adventures of a mismatched pair of missionaries, sent halfway across the world to spread the Good Word. With standing room only productions in London, on Broadway, and across North America, THE BOOK OF MORMON has truly become an international sensation. Contains explicit language.

PILOBOLUS: OTHER WORLDS COLLECTION traverses the spaces we inhabit—from the realms within ourselves, society, and the universe—with wit, wisdom, and whimsy.
This collection features collaborations with visionaries who see the world through the lens of theatre, music, and dance, including award-winning playwright and director Aaron Posner, multi-instrumentalist and composer Stuart Bogie, choreographer and former Pilobolus dancer Gaspard Louis, original Pilobolus member Lee Harris, and composer Paul Sullivan.

HADESTOWN (SANTA BARBARA PREMIERE)

COME SEE HOW THE WORLD COULD BE.
Welcome to HADESTOWN, where a song can change your fate.
